Well thought that I would put a few pic's up of last weekend mainly for the benefit of the guys who came along but also for you guys to peruse .
Jason and Rod came to give some instruction and Martin and Stu came along for the crack.
After clearing the mess from the scouts....many thanks guys the rats have had a good feed!
We set up the cots and hammocks and made this....
Bit of humour really for the benefit of Stu and Martin who arrived later.
My pit.
The cowboy casserole I made seemed to go down ok!! Good excuse to play with the dutch
oven.
The boys enjoying a brew. Martin, Rod and Jason.
The reason we got together...
Breakfast!!!! No seriously.....this
Knife skills ,axe skills and safety with Jason.
Tracking skills with Rod.
Communal shelter boy did we need it sat night!!!!
View from my cot.
Bow drill practice
Jason (Shrop lad)the money shot!
Chillin on final night with Martins tripod..... will be trying that again!
All in all a great three days out. Massive thanks to Rod and Jason I hope that you run many courses in the future for paying punters as you both have the skills ,patience and enthusiasm that makes learning new skills easy! Great to meet Martin who also was very generous in spending time with us and has an enthusiasm for bushcraft which is contagious. Oh that bloke Stu knows a thing or two as well!!!
